Memories of race and place in the USA

摘要

I often tell stories about rny grandparents to health professionals I teach to introduce a discussion on disparities, race, and culture. I share my memories of their lives in a rural town in Georgia, where a railroad track served as both a physical and metaphorical divide between races. These experiences ultimately provided the passion that drives much of my work and coloured the lens through which I viewed the powerful exhibition, Health is a Human Right: Race and Place in America, at the David J SencerCDC Museum in Atlanta.
